Lucky Number 7

I can't believe Sonu is already 7 years old.  Seriously...where has the time gone?  It doesn't feel like that long ago that he arrived...making us a family.

And I know I may be biased, but he seriously may have been the cutest baby ever born.  Wide-eyed straight from the oven with lashes for days and that dimple...

He has completely had me from day one.  Even as a baby, he was an obvious old soul.  

And as he has grown his intelligence, creativity, wit, maturity and compassion completely amaze me.  He is talented and thoughtful, enthusiastic and hilarious.

And today, his seventh birthday, was a great reminder to me of how lucky I am to be his mom.  It was awesome.  

We started the day with a big breakfast and a couple cartoons.  Then we left the sibs with the nanny and headed out for Sonupalooza 2015!  It was a little rainy so we hit Coco Keys.  We had a great time going down the water slides and floating around the lazy river.

We ate some lunch then headed over to the arcade.  It was Noonie's lucky day as he struck the jackpot...one game won him more than 2000 tickets!  

He cashed them in for some superhero dolls...one for him and one for each of his brothers.  He's the man.

After coming home and reconvening with the littles we headed out to dinner.  His choice...sushi! 

He is my son...

I hope this day was as special for him as it was for me.  I love our crazy life, but it was so nice to take some time out for some one on one with my biggest little love.  My baby has grown up and I am enormously proud of the boy he has become!  

Happy 7th birthday Noonie!  You are (and will always be!) my sunshine.
